Chooses

Episode 6

He was sitting by the window with a book in his hand. While Mariza was sleeping in the second ward after the window. The doctor sitting in his chair. There are only 3 people in the UKS.

Izriel who wanted to stop by and peek frowned at this situation. When he looked at Ratih for the second time, he almost fell down in surprise because Ratih looked back at him. Finally, he decided to enter.

"Kok you came here? Are you sick too?" Ask Ratih.

When he looked into those eyes, he somehow felt he could not lie. My eyes seemed to be able to see to the bottom side of him.

"Lo Nengokin."

The school doctor standing guard immediately looked towards Izriel with a silly surprised expression. Izriel immediately glanced sharply at the man.

"I'm not papa." Ratih smiled sweetly.

"And why is he sleeping?" Izriel sent an interrogating glance towards the doctor.

"Ah.. That's.." He glanced at Ratih, causing Izriel to look in the direction of Ratih who still maintained her sweet smile.

"Mariza just wants mastiin I'm not out of the UKS. The doctor is only on duty. I asked for help he did not rebuke Mariza. Because I'm the one who's getting bothered when he wakes up. By the way, thank you for caring about me. But, it seems like you didn't come just for that."

"You mean?" Ask Izriel with a flat face.

"That time under the tree is the same." Izriel kept looking straight at Ratih. He knows the meaning of Ratih.and Ratih is very sharp in judging someone.

"Well, will you answer?"

"If it's. it depends." Izriel approached Ratih, holding up a chair from the front of the doctor in front of Ratih and sitting there.

Izriel faced Ratih and looked at him fixedly. Honestly, he was very curious about being hidden by the friendly face that was always smiling without the burden of life. He even began to doubt whether the smile was real or fake.

"Why do you keep all your identities. I can't even figure out who you really are."

"Isn't that disrespectful, figuring out the privacy of others? Does a rich kid have a stalking hobby?" Izriel's eyebrows twitched.

"Well, you'll answer me, if I ask who you are?"

He smiled, not answering.

"He must know who you are." Appoint Izriel to the doctor sitting in her place pretending not to hear their conversation.

"Who am I, you'll know later. Please help me live my peaceful life a little more? I know you're not the type to gossip about what you saw when we first met."

"peacefully living? So, being bullied is your definition of a peaceful life?"

"Everyone takes the limit from his point of view as the limit of the world."

"Schopenhauer." The doctor followed. Izriel glanced at him sharply. But, the doctor still pretended as if he had not heard or said anything before.

"So, you mean I'm narrow-minded?"

"I didn't say that. Please understand that my peaceful life has nothing to do with you. So, pretend you don't see it like before." Izriel. 'So, this girl knows I'm watching her?'

Izriel snorted and left by pounding the door hard. Mariza was shocked and woke up.

"A-what's up?"

"You're awake? Now it's time for class. Go, go!" Ratih smiled at Mariza who was still not fully awake.

"Miss.." Call the Doctor to Ratih.

"Don't call me that."

"You know what I mean.."

"Yes, I know. Leave it alone, he won't say anything." The doctor looked down and put on a worried face.

"Did I miss something?"

"Aware yet? Come on, to class now." Train divert. He pulled Mariza from the top of the ward to get off.

***

After the events in the UKS, nothing happened. Izriel refrains from forgetting Ratih, but is unable to. He kept on wondering about the girl. Strange and different than others. He secretly steals a glance at Ratih who accidentally passed by, or even looks for him and watches him from afar. He may have done it unconsciously. But, there were others who always caught him looking at Ratih. It was the Queen.

The queen who was angry and jealous could not stand it and returned to judge Ratih. He who had been looking for attention was always ignored how could he accept if another girl was seen like that?

He gathers his followers and fans of Izriel to share in the case of Ratih. Starting from filling Ratih's bag with rats when he is not there, tearing and throwing the contents of Ratih's bag. To the worst of all, in places that are not monitored by CCTV and friends of Ratih, they will verbally attack. When Ratih ketoilet he was watered, when walking was scuttered, when the lessons outside the classroom he was also always colonized.

The worst thing is this time. Someone pushed him off the stairs as he was going down. Finally he fell down the stairs. Izriel and some of his friends, Bayu, Alex, Rezha and Jordan, who were near the scene were shocked and ran towards Ratih when they saw him fall down the stairs. The bustling atmosphere could not make Ratih say that he was being pushed. It was tantamount to indiscriminate accusation because he did not even know who was pushing him. And that staircase is a dead corner of CCTV surveillance.

"Lo gapapa?" Alex asked worried. Ratih smiled at him. He tried to stand up, but his legs hurt. Realizing that Ratih was in pain, Izriel immediately knelt down and lifted her bridal style.

"Please lower. I can walk."

"Don't talk much. Standing up can't."

Ratih resigned in the hands of Izriel. Not far from there, someone who was definitely the brain of the incident was a beard fire with the actions of a man he adored.

When Ratih was taken to the UKS with Izriel in his arms, the doctor stared at them cengo. "Didn't they fight a few days ago? and now they're showing such an intimate attitude."

"Doctor Huda, sorry to bother you again. I sprained."

"Why now?" Ratih did not answer. He then looked at Izriel who was gently lowering him to the ward. Doctor Huda knelt down in front of the seated Ratih. Izriel immediately took off her blazer and covered Ratih's legs down to her knees due to the school uniform skirt that was up to her knees long.

"Fall down the stairs." Izriel answered, which made Ratih look at her dislike. "Why? Really?"

Hearing that doctor Huda immediately pulled his cell out of his pocket. Ratih who saw that instantly took Doctor Huda's phone.

"Don't! I just need to be treated."

"The report later. Obatin him now. Lex, tell his friends, this girl was pushed up the stairs." Izriel's friends from earlier were confused by the atmosphere among the 3 people in front of them. They talk about something only they know.

"I never said I was pushed off the stairs."

"And I'm not so stupid as to believe if you say lo floppiness keeps falling."

"Aw!" Ratih was shocked when Doctor Huda examined his leg.

"Hold a little. The bones are sliding." Trainly tightened her jaw, her hand unconsciously grabbed the arm of Izriel beside her, while Doctor Huda massaged and restored her ankle as he had. Izriel who was held by his arm just kept silent and looked at Ratih's legs which looked swollen and massaged.

Izriel's friends who witnessed it were a little surprised by the small, yet gentle attitudes Izriel took on Ratih. At least they knew, that Ratih was the first girl to be treated like that from Izriel, as long as they knew the cold guy.

Doctor Huda turned to Izriel's friends. "Begging for ice cubes in the school's cooperative freezer to compress!"

"Let me." suggested Rezha, then ran out immediately.

"Ratih, where?" The new Shella comes with Mariza and Tiara.

"Training to be pushed from the top of the stairs?" Tiara asked Ratih. Ratih just smiled, he couldn't lie to his friends.

"Who's the guy?" Clara had already let out a strong killing intent.

"I don't know either. Just calm down, I'm gapapa."

"Train, this time I won't hear your words. Mar, please have people check the CCTV. Tiara, take care of Ratih. I have something to call."

"Wait on! Shel-" Shella is out of the UKS. He's coming down from the ward. Izriel who was infuriated by Ratih's selfless behavior immediately pushed and crushed him on the ward.

"Don't, once in a while get down from here." All who watched in the room were choked with that intimate pose. However, the sight of the intimidating, inviolable eyes of Izriel left them unable to comment. People who don't know, will definitely think they're kissing. More surprisingly, Ratih looked at him straight with a clear feeling of dislike. There was no fear or awkwardness in his eyes.

"I thank you and appreciate your concern. Please do not exceed your limits. Mariza, help me." Mariza immediately regained her senses and removed the forced Izriel from the top of Ratih. Because Ratih's power won't be enough to get rid of Izriel himself.

Criet. Everyone looked towards the open door. Rezha was carrying a bag of ice cubes confused by the atmosphere in this room.

"A-what's up?" Rezha asked seeing everyone looking towards her.

"Lo, just disturb" said one of Izriel's friends, Bayu.

Trained down helped by Mariza. Mariza holds Ratih to the outside of the room. There, Shella is calling someone.

"Hello, Mrs Randie. Long time lifting it. It's Shella. Train to fall down the stairs. Yep. Because-" Ratih keeps Shella's phone away from her ear. Train shook his head at Shella.

Heard from across the street calling Shella.

"Hello, MAs. It's Ratih. Don't pick up later. Train gapapa, just a sprain due to fatigue. Train to go home with Shella." Ratih immediately disconnected the phone.

"Gue really does not understand the meaning of peaceful life lo" said Izriel who was leaning on the doorstep of UKS.

"I'm not asking you to understand. And please don't do anything like that. I don't like." Train walking back towards the UKS. Mariza was still swiftly guiding him.

"Living at peace what? Ratih, why are you lying to Randie?" ask the confused Shella to Ratih.

"You guys wanna find out, I'm not gonna stop. But, don't tell the house people. It just adds to my problem."

Shella could not comment anymore. At least Ratih let him investigate this. So, if it is proven later, he will take action. The moment it arrived, hiding this incident from the Ratih family would be futile. Because Shella has decided to drag whoever harmed Ratih to hell.

"Surely, who is Rendi? Ratih's brother?" Ask Rezha who has missed a lot of things.

"Yes, he's my brother." Reply to Ratih with a friendly smile as he passes through Rezha.

"Izriel," call Shella to the handsome young man of mixed blood. Izriel simply turned her head in response to the call. "Gue hope you're farin Ratih. He never did anything rich before he met you. You must know all the girls who are deket or ever you please end up like this. So, don't train again."

Hearing that, Izriel was a little offended. All this time he never took the initiative to approach girls. Only girls are always looking for opportunities to get close to them. And of course his self-esteem smeared when he heard the word "cock" which effect is very cheap. But, it was true that he was curious about Ratih. But, his connotation kepo said slightly hurt his self-esteem.

"Yes horror! I last saw Ratih a few weeks ago after he was doused from the 2nd floor. And I let him go because he happened to pass by. Every time I meet him, I help him out of trouble. When he's not near me, he's also bullied. So, don't say I hit that weird chick. After all, Ratih himself did not care either. Why should you care? Temen lo is a strange girl who can't live bullied is a peaceful life. He could volunteer, but he'd rather be quiet." Izriel ended the longest dialogue he had ever spoken and went from there.

"peacefully living? Ratih, how difficult is your situation, so you don't want your family to know you're bullied?" tanga Shella muttered, but Izriel could still hear her passing through.

"That was the longest sentence I've ever heard from the Izriel bang" Rezha said

"Lo, the gatel pingin slapped the same Izriel, huh?" Jorda who answered.

"Bro, what do you mean about "peaceful living" by Ratih?" alex asks Izriel to ignore Jordan and Rezha's stupid prank.

"He hid his identity because he wanted to live in peace. What's clear is I don't know who he is, with all the investigation from my network until now."

"Because your network is broad and strong enough, to just find out the complete data of all students in this school, you know, so you think he's from a family that's influential enough to just ngusir the bullies."

"Hm."

"But, he's more willing to be dem, is that it?"

"hm."

"She must have considerations and privacy that others don't need to know." Alex's remark was correct. He also recalled the muttering of Shella a moment ago.

"Caves know. So, I hope you guys don't tell anyone this. I don't want to be told gossip. I said Stalker and kepo."

Izriel's friends, Bayu, Rezha, Alex and Jordan giggled at him. Izriel glanced at him sharply when laughed at.

"Ready, bro." Jordan replied, trying to divert Izriel's anger

On the other hand, he was getting curious about Ratih. Especially after hearing what Shella muttered.

'Who are you really? And what problems bother you to close your identity? Why can you always smile so relaxed if you live a heavier life than bullied?'

Like pandora boxes that are increasingly forbidden to open, the more curious someone will be. Izriel is now in the same dilemma. He never wanted to do this with someone's life until he wanted to paint it. But, the eagle-eyed Amber girl managed to make him very curious to break all his habits.
